  • M. M. M. Hayes Lay of the Land
    M. M. M. Hayes Lay of the Land he monochrome wastes of the Negev surrounded the outpost and stretched away, a shimmering flatness with not a tree for cover. Sun burned everything the color of sand. Somewhere out there was a war, Lieutenant FintziT reminded himself on his first day of duty with the tank division, two days after graduation from medical school in Tel Aviv. Ready, and willing, Fintzi regarded with disappointment the huddle of makeshift buildings and straggle of dirt-colored soldiers lazing in the shade of dusty tanks or playing chess in the barracks. At the pre-fab infirmary, a fifty-year-old sergeant on his annual month of duty studied Fintzi through lens so thick his eyes looked like pinholes. A boyish mechanic peered out from under a truck and Fintzi wondered if the kid was old enough to shave. The same boy told Fintzi he’d enlisted because he’d been given a choice: jail or the army. The only body not in slow motion was a sergeant kneeling in the gravel road playing with his scrawny redheaded kitten. The armored division wasn’t supposed to have pets, but things seemed pretty relaxed. Fintzi wasn’t sure where a kitten could have come from, maybe just wandering in off the desert? Maybe the sergeant smuggled it here under his shirt? Everyone seemed to know about the cat… but so what? By the second day, Fintzi had the lay of the land. The able-bodied men had gone off to fight and, basically, the army had put him behind to run the medical depot, with—much as he hated to be unkind, nevertheless—the losers.

    GENETICS AND PATTERNS OF INHERITANCE Simon Petersen-Jones DVetMed PhD DVOphthal MRCVS DECVO Department of Small Animal Clinical Science Michigan State University Veterinary Medical Center 736 Wilson Road, D-208 East Lansing. MI 48824 [email protected] INTRODUCTION The genome contains a complete set of instructions to make an organism and control its cellular structures and activities. This information, or genome, is contained within tightly coiled threads of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) found in the nucleus of every cell. The DNA is divided into chromosomes. The human genome consists of about 3 billion basepairs (Mb) (dog genome consists of 2.4Mb) and disease may result from an alteration of just one of those basepairs. It is estimated that the human genome contains in the region of 20, - 25,000 genes, whereas the dog is estimated to have only ~19,000 genes. Each gene carries the code for making a particular protein. Only a subset of the total number of genes will be functional in a particular cell type. Certain genes, known as house-keeping genes are expressed in all cell types and are needed for cell function. Other genes are tissue or cell-type specific. Although 20 –25,000 may seem a small number of genes to encode for and control the functions of a complex organism, further complexity if provided by a process of alternative spicing of genes. Alternative splicing between different tissues allows the same gene to produce differing proteins dependent on the tissue in which the gene is active. From http://www.exonhit.com/alternativesplicing/index.html - see this web page for more information on alternative splicing.

  • Jazzy and Kaleidoscopic, Like Fall Leaves, with Personalities to Match
    For the friends of the Independent Cat Society, a no-kill cat shelter Fall 2011, # 134 Jazzy and kaleidoscopic, like fall leaves, with personalities to match... othing says “cozy” quite like the sight of a charming calico cat curled up in a Ncomfy ball of color. Colorful and delightful, calico cats are beloved by cat lovers everywhere. Like torties and tabbies, calicos are not a breed but rather a color pattern, created by the combination of white, black, and orange. In the case of calicos, the whole is most definitely greater than the sum of the parts! The name “calico” comes from a cloth first imported to Britain from India in the 17th century. Calico fabric was and still is brightly colored and distinctively patterned just like the cats. In Japan, tri-colored cats are called mi-ke, meaning “triple fur,” and in Holland they are called lapjeskat, which is Dutch for “patches.” It should come as no surprise that the two most common names for a calico cat are “Callie” and “Patches,” but there are other names inspired by their coat that may suit one of these multi- hued beauties, such as Autumn, Calista, Dottie, Jewel, Kalie (as in “kaleidoscope,”) Rainbow, or Sunset, and many more. Our own Paulette Gonzalez has made a science out of naming calicos, coming up with some of the most outrageous names, like Fiesta, Confetti, Maddie and Sophie (a dilute calico) are ICS alumni, and great examples Spumoni, and Salsa! Regardless of what you of calico beauty, as well as sisterly love! choose to call your own example of living color, she still may or may not come when you call her.

It is known among rescue groups as the Black Cat and Dog Syndrome, and these animals become the unfortunate victims of this tragic problem.

  • REX the KING the Rex Cats, So New to the Fancy That Many Fanciers Who
    REX THE KING By Helen Weiss The Rex cats, so new to the fancy that many Fanciers who show, and even some of the judges have never seen one, are of the most out­ standing breed. Most new breeds and colors are man made by hybridiz­ ing between two or more breeds and work­ ing with them until the desired character­ istics are obtained. This is not true with the Rex for it is a mutation from the Do­ mestic Shorthair and can be obtained only when both parents carry the rex gene or by the original mutation created by God. Many think that a Rex cat is just cat without guardhairs. This is not true for these cats, even in the first mutation, are as unlike their normal coated siblings as they can be. Almost without fail these cats show a definitely foreign type. The differ­ ence is best seen in the illustration of the Rex cat from Ohio and his litter brother. The Rex are outstanding in appear­ ance, their most distinguishing characteristic being' their short, dense and usually curly coat that is so soft. to the touch that one can never forget the feel of this luxurious fur. This fur is different from that of the normal cat, for it has no g'uard hairs, with the und~r coat or down hairs shorter and finer but more numerous than the hall' on any other breed. 1 Rex cats have a delicate appearance which belies their heavy weight and muscular body. Most Rex cats are fine boned and slim in appearance, but part of this is an illusion created by the very short coat, so that one is able to see the muscle forms that are covered by a longer coat in other cats.
